Anyone have a Sweet Potato Salad recipe?

I used to buy this before LCing in the grocery store but it had a mix of sweet potatos and regular potatos. Anyone have a recipe only using sweet potatos. Would a regular potato salad recipe work with the sweet potatos?

I saw Rachael Ray make this one and I plan to do it with sweet potatoes:

Recipe Summary
Difficulty: Easy
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Yield: 6 servings
User Rating: 4 Stars

2 1/2 pounds small potatoes, baby Yukon gold or red skinned potatoes
2 ounces, about 3 tablespoons, sliced jarred or canned hot peppers: jalapenos, hot pepper rings, hot cherry peppers, your choice
1 small red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
4 scallions, chopped
A splash hot pepper juice, from jar or can
3 tablespoons cider or wine vinegar, eyeball it
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, eyeball it
Salt and pepper

Chunk up the potatoes, cutting them into large bite-size pieces and place them in a pot of water. Boil until tender, drain and return back to hot pot to dry them out. Add hot peppers, bell peppers and scallions to potatoes, then dress with a splash of hot pepper juice and vinegar. Toss to combine, then drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil to coat the salad evenly and season with salt and pepper.

I bought a great big light-fleshed sweet potato last week and boy was it good - I think it would lend itself really well to this particular recipe, but even the orange ones should be yummy.

Thanks, I'm gonna try this one. I think the hot pepper will be really good with the sweet potato.

Pommie, please post a review if you make it before I do and I will do so also! I think this sounds really good!
